Copy Folder?

[d22552000]

soo.. how do I do it?

copy only copies ONE file...

 

I want to copy a folder, subfolder, files, and subfiles.  I don't care about attributes.

I thought about making the folder a zip, and then using extract but that was confusing and took too long on the server.

 

so what do I do?  Is there a script that will parse the dir and COPY all the files?

I'm not sure on a script, but selecting all files in a folder, I'm guessing, would have something to do with 'directory\*.*'

[d22552000]

Yes this would select all files in THAT folder... but not subfolders.

and with over 90 subfolders I don't want to list them all.

This would also make my php file reallly big -,-.

I can understand where you're coming from, I have the same sort of problems

I'm sorry I can't provide more help, unless it's possible to use 'directory\*\'

unction COPY_RECURSIVE_DIRS($dirsource, $dirdest)
{ // recursive function to copy
// all subdirectories and contents:
if(is_dir($dirsource))$dir_handle=opendir($dirsource);
mkdir($dirdest."/".$dirsource, 0750);
while($file=readdir($dir_handle))
{
if($file!="." && $file!="..")
{
if(!is_dir($dirsource."/".$file)) copy ($dirsource."/".$file, $dirdest."/".$dirsource."/".$file);
else COPY_RECURSIVE_DIRS($dirsource."/".$file, $dirdest);
}
}
closedir($dir_handle);
return true;
}

This will probably help..

 

      function copyr($source, $dest){
      // Simple copy for a file
      if (is_file($source)) {
      $c = copy($source, $dest);
      chmod($dest, 0777);
      return $c;
      }
      // Make destination directory
      if (!is_dir($dest)) {
      $oldumask = umask(0);
      mkdir($dest, 0777);
      umask($oldumask);
      }
      // Loop through the folder
      $dir = dir($source);
      while (false !== $entry = $dir->read()) {
      // Skip pointers
      if ($entry == ‘.’ || $entry == ‘..’) {
      continue;
      }
       
      // Deep copy directories
      if ($dest !== “$source/$entry”) {
      copyr(”$source/$entry”, “$dest/$entry”);
      }
      }
       
      // Clean up
      $dir->close();
      return true;
      }

YAY!! thank you..

 

I will try it before I say if its solved or not...

 

$d = "C:/Inetpub/wwroot/" . $_CUSTOMER['path'] . "/forum";
$s = "C:/Inetpub/installers/forum";
COPY_RECURSIVE_DIRS($s,$d);

function COPY_RECURSIVE_DIRS($dirsource, $dirdest)
{ // recursive function to copy
// all subdirectories and contents:
if(is_dir($dirsource))$dir_handle=opendir($dirsource);
mkdir($dirdest."/".$dirsource, 0750);
while($file=readdir($dir_handle))
{
if($file!="." && $file!="..")
{
if(!is_dir($dirsource."/".$file)) copy ($dirsource."/".$file, $dirdest."/".$dirsource."/".$file);
else COPY_RECURSIVE_DIRS($dirsource."/".$file, $dirdest);
}
}
closedir($dir_handle);
return true;
}

Problem:

 

no matter how I do a full path it wont take it because of the special uses of \...

 

$filename = "C:/Inetpub\wwwroot\";
$filename = $filename . $p;
$filename = $filename . "\forum\includes\config.php";

give me:

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\* on line 36

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\* on line 36

[MadTechie]

Use / NOT \

[d22552000]

lol then I get a different erorr, tried that.

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Registration\vbcreate.php on line 38

 

It doenst expect the $p variable cause the first line:

$filename = "C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/";

doesnt close if I have a / and then a quote.  The / denotes to escape the " -,-.

 

Got any other suggestions?

[MadTechie]

humm

sounds like a messed up path, delete the whole line and retype

[d22552000]

tried that. the path is full. the path comes up perfect elsewhere... and $p is just a folder claled test.. but I need to keep it a variable casue its dynamic.

 

$filename = "C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/" . $p . "/forum/includes/config.php";
